Dmitry Vasilievich Eremeev
Rank: Lieutenant-colonel.
My great-grandfather, Lieutenant Colonel Dmitry Vasilyevich Yeremeyev was born in 1913. In 1941-1945, he served in Transbaikalia, in the special forces, preparing soldiers for the front. During the Great Patriotic War, 16 divisions were sent from Transbaikalia to the battlefields – about 300 thousand people, more than 2 thousand guns, about 1.5 thousand tanks. In the summer of 1945, three months after the Victory, some of our troops went to the far East – there was the War with an ally of Nazi Germany-with Japan. Japan was very aggressive at the time. But on August 6, 1945, the Americans dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. At dawn on August 9, the victorious army, which included my great-grandfather, launched an offensive against the nearly one and a half million Kwantung army. The Soviet-Japanese battle lasted a little less than a month. Our command has developed a Grand plan to encircle and capture the enemy. Soon the Japanese troops were defeated, Japan capitulated, and our soldiers went home. My great-grandfather also returned, but not immediately. It was necessary to disarm the enemy. After the War, great-grandfather Dima continued his service. In 1949, he was sent to the Leningrad military district, a special purpose unit. In 1953-1955, he served in Czechoslovakia as an adviser to the chief of Slovak counterintelligence. My great-grandfather has many awards, including the order of the Patriotic War I and II degrees, the order of the red star, the medals "for bravery", "for military merit", "for the victory over Germany", "for the victory over Japan". Every year on May 9, my great-grandfather put on his military uniform and went to the Victory parade with his children and grandchildren. Great-grandfather Dima died in 1993, shortly before the birth of his first great-grandson, who was named Dmitry. Every year on May 9, our family still comes to the Eternal flame to worship fallen soldiers. In memory of great-grandfather Dima, my father and my brother give flowers to veterans who are still alive.
